Abstract
An advanced surface movement guidance system (A-SMGCS) is needed to enhance safety and capacity of airport surface operations particularly under low visibility conditions. Standards are under surveillance systems development for applications by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) all weather operations panel for A-SMGCS, the airport surface navigation surveillance subgroup of RTCA Special Committee 159, and RTCA SC-186 for automatic dependent surveillance broadcast (ADS-B). In support of these activities, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) developed an integrated A-SMGCS called the Low Visibility Landing and Surface Operations (LVLASO) system. This system was installed at Atlanta Hartsfield International Airport (ATL). A surface surveillance system performance evaluation of airport surface detection equipment (ASDE-3) radar, 1090 MHz ADS-B and Mode S multilateration was conducted. Research on multilateration optimization for the A-SMGCS application was performed.
